A time-dependent multiconfiguration self-consistent field (TDMCSCF) scheme is developed to describe the time-resolved electron dynamics of a laser-driven many-electron atomic or molecular system, starting directly from the time-dependent Schrodinger equation for the system. This nonvariational formulation aims at the full exploitations of concepts, tools, and facilities of existing, well-developed quantum chemical MCSCF codes. The theory uses, in particular, a unitary representation of time-dependent configuration mixings and orbital transformations. Within a short-time, or adiabatic approximation, the TDMCSCF scheme amounts to a second-order split-operator algorithm involving generically the two noncommuting one-electron and two-electron parts of the time-dependent electronic Hamiltonian. We implement the scheme to calculate the laser-induced dynamics of the two-electron H-2 molecule described within a minimal basis, and show how electron correlation is affected by the interaction of the molecule with a strong laser field.
